This is an article that presents overcoming the odds and recognising that with the beauty of each rose exists painful thorns.... Time to recognise this and move on!

The purpose of my ethnographic research is neither to diagnose one particular
socio-cultural experience among all second generation immigrants nor to decry the
concepts “transnationalism” and “transnationality” in favor of a new terminology that can
be universally applied to immigrants of both generations . My purpose is not, in other
words, to collapse real multiplicity into a single theory of second generation
transnationalism. Rather, I employ the ethnographic method as an exploratory tool, in
hopes of better understanding to what extent transnationalism and transnationality –
insofar as these terms indicate particular forms of trans-border social engagement and
subjectivity – are subject to generational transformation that may produce a vast array of
identities and modes of identification some (but not all) of which may be “transnational.”
"Fade to Orange" is a narrative I developed whilst talking Advanced Fiction Workshop during Spring 2017. The full story, projected to be 200 pages, tracks the life of Amir Dabiri -- now a disillusioned thirty-four-year-old producer -- as he reflects on his adolesence, and in particular, the year he spent studying film in Prague. That year, he began an intimate, tumultuous, and ultimately transformational relationship with a fellow student named Catherine, whose radical views on life and love would inspire Amir to shift his attitude towards his family and himself. Yet as the program ends and Amir and Catherine face overseas distance, their relationship unravels -- due to mistakes Amir has only begun to confront. In present day, Amir's reflections on the misjudgments of his youth prepare him for a difficult meeting: his first time seeing Catherine, a new hire to his company, in ten years.

Then louder, faster. "JONAS. JONAS. JONAS."
With the chant, Jonas knew, the community was accepting him and his
new role, giving him life, the way they had given it to the newchild Caleb.
His heart swelled with gratitude and pride.
But at the same time he was filled with fear. He did not know what his
selection meant. He did not know what he was to become.
Or what would become of him.

QUESTION S 5. To Whom Should I Listen?
envision another, quite different example of a community that noticed the
gifts of a young person and sought to shape his future. How does Har-
ding's sense of the scope and needs of the community that is "callin ,,
him change over time? Do his relationship to this community and h· g t~ 1s vari-
ous ways of responding to the call of his people deepen or threaten what
we might call , with Charles Taylor, his "authenticity"?
Callings are strange things. I think I've heard a fair number in my time, per-
haps fewer than I was supposed to - or maybe it was more; I'm not certain
now. Sometimes they proved to be nothing more than echoes bouncin off
from other lives Oives I sometimes thought were mine) and passed on ~heir
way. Others puzzled me, and led me into ways I do not yet understand.
Some I understand and fear. A few - perhaps more than I know - I have
followed as fur as they led; and some are still moving. Still moving, prepar-
ing to join themselves to the sounds of the new summons, and I suspect
there are yet borders to cross. ...
Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.

youare a survivor, thistime.
Reflection:WhenIwas at primaryschool back inthe early1960's, I was one of around5 or so
familiesof AfricanHeritage- BlackBritish.The dayswere longandthe winters,very,verycold.The
school,ActonWellswaslocatedinNorthWest London....School Road(Iwouldlovetohearfrom
anyone whoattendedthe school atthat time,but wouldalsobe happyif people
that wasted mytime reads thisarticle andreflectedasIhave) I decidedtowrite thisarticle because
there are othersout there thatmay have had similarexperiencesandsituationsthatatthe time,

Back in time:
As the bell peeledindicatingthatitwas lunch time,eagerchildrenheadedtowardsthe canteento

My lunchhourswere filledwithdreadbecause agroupof prefects- girls,singledme out.A wide
